    mmm thanks for sharing that one! I love pork loin and haven't had it since I went moose hunting last october. Can you tell me for those calories how big of a pork loin that serving (1/5 of loin) comes from so that I can make it fairly close? Thanks!

    Honestly I am not too sure how big the loin was, as I bought a bulk pack of 5 at Costco. It was pretty average size I guess. I didn't think it was too bad in calories, as that is taking into consideration eating the apples and onions, which I didn't. I paired it with 1/2 cup low-cal garlic mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli and cauliflower. The final meal total was only 438.
